Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel’s love story almost played out a lot differently. Despite first officially getting together in 2007, via Us Weekly, the couple hit a major snag in 2011 when they briefly broke up. According to Billboard, Timberlake and Biel released a joint statement and confirmed they’d parted ways. “Addressing the media speculation regarding Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake’s relationship, we are confirming that they mutually have decided to part ways,” read the statement.
At the time, both stars kept the exact reason for their breakup to themselves. However, Timberlake briefly touched on the breakup in a profile for Vanity Fair later that year, expressing that he still cared about Biel. “I would rather not talk about her, because it’s hurtful for me,” said the singer, adding, “I don’t want to say much more, because I have to protect things that are dear to me — for instance, her. She is the single-handedly most significant person in my life. In my 30 years, she is the most special person, O.K.?” During the same interview, the singer spoke on his thoughts about marriage. At the time, the singer stated that he “didn’t know” if he wanted to get married, but would consider it “if that’s what it take for two people to make it official.”
Later that year, the couple got engaged over Winter break, according to Billboard. They married 10 months later on October 19, 2012.
